{"product_id":"9781326731236","title":"Mixed Up Maxie being me! 2nd Revision july","description":"Mixed up Maxi being me! This book is about me being deaf and daft and how I coped growing up and living with deafness. I put pen to paper and started to write Mixed up Maxi because, for far too long deaf people have not been given a fair hearing, literally and figuratively speaking. It all came to a head after the soap opera; EastEnders created the character Ben Mitchell, who is the \"deaf\" son, of Phil Mitchell. Ben doesn't display a single aspect of deafness. I don't know if the actor is actually deaf or if EastEnders just portrayed Ben as deaf and I use the word \"portrayed\" very lightly. Since Ben arrived in EastEnders with his National Health, blue hearing aid, not once have I heard* him say \"pardon?\", \"what did you say?\" or \"come again?\" it gives the impression that hearing aids cure deafness and this is far from true.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003eAuthor: \u003c\/b\u003eMaxine Ann Bailey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/b\u003eLulu.com\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/b\u003eJul 27, 2016\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003eNumber of Pages: \u003c\/b\u003e162 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003eLanguage: \u003c\/b\u003eEnglish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003eBinding: \u003c\/b\u003ePaperback\/Biography \u0026amp; Autobiography\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003eISBN-10: \u003c\/b\u003e1326731238\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/b\u003e9781326731236\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Lulu.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50364152283441,"sku":"9781326731236","price":12.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/8215\/8385\/files\/9781326731236__99291.jpg?v=1732434010","url":"https:\/\/www.recomparo.com\/products\/9781326731236","provider":"ReComparo.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
